.:j:. Junker Congress Faction Feedback

[Sarawr!?]

Nope, actually.

I want a story. I want RP, fun, perhaps a Pew.
I want suspension , the thrill of not knowing what will happen next.
Of an universe I am part of expanding, shrinking, breathing... of a storyline continuing.

Instead I get rulemongering, fight picking, and < name thy favourite > tears.

Fun fact ? I still like playing DISCO. Sometimes.

Pretty much I agree with this.




Predetermined Roleplay isn't fun, and it certainly isn't what was going to happen in the court thread. The Junkers asked for it inRP, and the GOVERNMENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF LIBERTY, agreed to facilitate, inRP.

I do believe that both parties should be in constant communication out of character in regard to things like: The nature of the setting, what sorts of things should and shouldn't be expected, and to allay any OOC concerns about bullying, powergaming and so forth; and that's as far as OOC coordination should go, in my mind.

As for your "Honor System" Huggie, that's a big part of the thing here -- The Congress inRP will be faced with some decisions at the outcome of the court stuff, whether or not they honor their part in all this will have a huge effect on how their relationship with the law enforcement/military factions of Liberty continues to develop, I think that's normal.

THE PROBLEM comes when they try to dodge out of consequences inRP, now this isn't (or shouldn't) be a problem out of character, but it certainly DOES (and should) make things worse for the Congress inRP, this is normal, this is how roleplaying works, it's not hard to follow, and I really can't understand why some people don't get that.

I don't want admin intervention, and I don't think anyone representing LibGov does, either, So I don't know where that came from. As for determining whether or not that Court RP is binding? The Republic of Liberty (and all it's military/police factions) play as the legitimate representation of government authority in House Liberty, it stands to reason that entering into such roleplay with "LibGov" or the leadership of the [LN], or the =LSF=, or LPI-, to the end of dealing with crimes and criminal charges would have a binding outcome. Or does that somehow not make sense?

So to clarify again: The LEADERSHIP of the Junker Congress demanded a trial, and the collective leadership of the factions representing the government of Liberty agreed; it seems pretty clear to me that the outcome of such an RP endeavor should be expected to alter 'legal standing' and/or 'Diplomacy', for better or worse.


Honestly I do hope that some fun is had by both sides dealing with that Courtroom RP, I really do, because that's what Roleplaying should be -- FUN, but nobody should expect to always get a favorable result to their inRP actions either, anyone who does is terribly misguided.

As for...whatever this is you're saying about LibGov levying TAXES against POBs in PR, and whoever it was that said something about a purported Siege of PR that would take place: That information is FALSE, there have been no TAXES levied on any POBs, and if there were such demands, they were dropped because somebody realized that they made a mistake, and there is no siege planned either, so let's drop all that RIGHT now, because it isn't true, and I'm not going to let the finger be pointed specifically at the [LN] for something it had ABSOLUTELY NO INVOLVEMENT IN.

The demand for docking rights, and the threats of investigation though, those are legitimate inRP things, and sure, the Junker Congress can refuse to allow such as well, and they'll deal with the repercussion of refusing to cooperate as well, ALL IN CHARACTER AND INRP, AS WOULD MAKE SENSE AND AS SHOULD BE EXPECTED.

I honestly don't know why people cannot differentiate between inRP consequences and "OORP GRUDGES OMG OMG!" in this community, and it drives me up the wall.

The Court RP, WHILE remaining serious in nature, should still be fun for the players involved, and while it is a scifi setting that we're in, and while it is a work of fiction...things SHOULD be kept sensible, that's MY biggest gripe here, and I think it's safe to say that's the gripe of everyone from LibGov who posted as well.


I can't speak for all the other people who posted, because as anyone whose been around here for a while knows -- when the crap hits the fan like it did here, trolls and griefers crawl out of the woodwork to make things all the worse.
